Closer towards inflation in string theory

Hassan Firouzjahi, S. -H. Henry Tye

In brane inflation, the relative brane position in the bulk of a brane world is the inflaton. For branes moving in a compact manifold, the approximate translational (or shift) symm…

Inter-brane Interactions in Compact Spaces and Brane Inflation

Sarah Shandera, Benjamin Shlaer, Horace Stoica +1

It was pointed out that brane-anti-brane inflation without warped geometry is not viable due to compactification effects (in the simplified scenario where the inflaton is decoupled…

Adding a Brane to the Brane-Anti-Brane Action in BSFT

Nicholas T. Jones, Louis Leblond, S. -H. Henry Tye

We attempt to generalize the effective action for the D-brane-anti-D-brane system obtained from boundary superstring field theory (BSFT) by adding an extra D-brane to it to obtain…

Inter-Brane Potential and the Decay of a non-BPS-D-brane to Closed Strings

Saswat Sarangi, S. -H. Henry Tye

We calculate the potential for $Dp-\Dbar p$ pair and show that the coincident $Dp-\Dbar p$ system has tachyonic modes, with of them due to radiative corrections. W…

Spectral flow and boundary string field theory for angled D-branes

Nicholas T. Jones, S. -H. Henry Tye

D-branes intersecting at an arbitrary fixed angle generically constitute a configuration unstable toward recombination. The reconnection of the branes nucleates at the intersection…

Observational Constraints on Cosmic String Production During Brane Inflation

Levon Pogosian, S. -H. Henry Tye, Ira Wasserman +1

Overall, brane inflation is compatible with the recent analysis of the WMAP data. Here we explore the constraints of WMAP and 2dFGRS data on the various brane inflationary scenario…
